07:14Yeah, sure.

07:24I'm not.

07:26I'm not.

07:28Yeah, okay.

07:30So the LGA is before.

07:36I don't know.

07:38I don't know.

07:40I don't know.

07:42I don't know.

07:44That's the LGA.

07:46Whoop!

07:48Go!

07:50.

07:52No, they're not.

07:54.

07:56Oh, fuck the Liberals!

08:15Hey, Anthony, how you doing, mate?

08:18Good, I'm having a little bit of trouble hearing,

08:21but I'll wait till all the other questions go in.

08:23I'll come in and make sure I don't forget.

08:24And they'll remind me what's up and get a little bit more.

08:26Oh, actually, that's good.

08:37Would you guys like to shuffle a bit that way?

08:42As soon as one of the kids is here, I'll do it.

08:45Yeah, they'll see it.

08:47So, we'll just talk to them.

08:50Or do we just...

08:51Do you want to talk to these guys about it?

08:52So, I reckon the kids are just going to try and do it.

08:55So, we'll do it once and then...

08:56Yeah, it's all right.

08:56It's all right.

08:57Now, it probably gives me a second chance.

08:58Yeah, a bit of crackling.

08:59It's not a real start-off.

09:00Back up.

09:01It's not a real start-off.

09:02Yeah, it's all right.

09:03Yeah, it's all right.

09:04Now, it probably gives me a second chance.

09:06Yeah, a bit of crackling.

09:08Yeah.

09:09It's not a real start-off.

09:11It's not a real start-off.

09:12Yeah.

09:13Back up.

09:14Yeah.

09:15Yeah.

09:16Yeah.

09:17Yeah, thanks.

09:18Um, I'm your ally tonight.

09:20Looking good, guys.

09:21I told you guys about the Prime Minister's nodders.

09:23About the what?

09:24The Prime Minister has nodders.

09:25What's he talking about?

09:26You?

09:27The Prime Minister what?

09:28He has nodders.

09:29Like, he has a guy at their press conferences that nods at him and smiles and stuff and

09:34gives him encouragement.

09:35And then I got him, then when I stood up after him, I got these guys, like, encourage

09:39me when he's really not happy.

09:41That's exciting.

09:42It's not that journalists aren't great as well.

09:45I don't think we'd be, um, always quite as encouraging.

09:48No, that's right.

09:49Because someone else would look concerned at my answers.

09:51Yeah.

09:52I'm, um, I'm wearing sunglasses for this one, too.

09:56That's cool.

09:57All right.

09:58You guys ready?

09:59Yep.

10:00You ready?

10:01Ready?

10:02Yep.

10:03Good.

10:04Okay.

10:05Well, after, well, after 11 years of Liberals, it's time for a fresh start for Tasmania.

10:22And that means access to free bulk-building GPs in a town and suburb near where Tasmanians

10:27actually live.

10:28That means a plan to fix the budget.

10:30It means a plan for more housing and a plan for real action on cost of living relief.

10:34This is a plan for Tasmania to change for a fresh start after 11 years of the Liberals.

10:39I'll come to him this night.

10:40You ready to go?

10:41Off you go.

10:42You've got a question.

10:43Have I got it?

10:44Sorry.

10:45You're done.

10:46Yep.

10:47Yep.

10:48Yep.

10:49Sorry.

10:50Do you still back your decision to move no confidence in the Premier?

10:52Yeah, look, it's important that Tasmanians know they've got a political party that's

11:06got a plan to fix the budget.

11:08What the Liberals have been doing for 11 years is drive us towards $11 billion worth of net

11:12debt.

11:13And then we found out later it was $13 billion worth of net debt.

11:16Net debt which will cripple Tasmania's future.

11:19Net debt which meant that Tasmanians will pay $700 million a year just servicing debt instead

11:24of paying for schools and hospitals.

11:26So Tasmanian Labor stood up.

11:28We stood up to this Premier who had a reckless plan for Tasmania's future.

11:33Let's go.

11:34If you don't win, what's the miscalculation?

11:39We had to stand up and we will always stand up for Tasmanians who want a sustainable budget,

11:44who didn't want a Liberal government to sell their assets, and who didn't want a Liberal

11:48government who left our spirits on the wrong side of the world.

11:51This has been a government that has been synonymous with stuff ups, particularly when it comes

11:56to our spirits.

11:57Tasmanians expect a government that delivers what they promise.

12:00And Tasmanians are asking for change and a fresh start.

12:03A government that will fix the budget, won't sell their assets and will bring our spirits home.

12:07To my question though, if you don't win, was it a miscalculation?

12:10Well, we have to win for Tasmanians.

12:12We have to win to deliver a fresh start.

12:14The Liberals' plan for the budget is reckless.

12:16It will send Tasmania broke.

12:18And that's why we need a Tasmanian Labor government that's got a plan to fix the budget.

12:21You may not win though, and if you don't, is it a miscalculation?

12:24We have to win for Tasmanians.

12:26We have to win to deliver the fresh start that Tasmania needs.

12:29It's been 11 years for the Liberals.

12:31They've taken Tasmania from no net debt to $13 billion worth of net debt.

12:35We'll spend $700 million a year just servicing that debt.

12:39Under the Liberals, we'll spend more servicing debt than we do on our entire ambulance

12:43and emergency service departments in our hospitals combined.

12:46It's all very fair and worthwhile to say you have to win, but you might not.

12:49So if you don't, is it a miscalculation?

12:52We have to win this government for Tasmania.

12:55We can't afford the Liberals' reckless spending.

12:58We can't afford them to send our state broke.

13:00That's why we've run this campaign that's backed in by business, by unions,

13:04and the community sector when it comes to our plan to fix the budget.

13:07But most importantly, Tasmanians want better access to healthcare services.

13:11What Jeremy Rockliffe and the Liberals have been doing with health

13:14has been making Tasmanians sicker.

13:16We need to provide more services in towns and suburbs where Tasmanians live

13:19to take pressure off our hospitals.

13:21And that's why Tassie Dock is so important.

13:23We'll open 10 new Tassie Dock clinics around the state

13:26that will provide free bulk build services to Tasmanians

13:29when they need it, where they need it, for free.

13:31You haven't answered my question.

13:33What's your reaction to the latest EMRS polling?

13:36It looks favourable to the Liberals but also that the minority government is key.

13:40Well, Tasmanians want a fresh start and they want a new government.

13:43The best way to deliver that is to vote Labor.

13:46Voting Labor means you'll get access to free bulk build GPs closer to where you live.

13:51It means you'll get access to better housing through our planning reforms

13:54that will deliver thousands more homes and real cost of living relief

13:57that will support Tasmanian families.

13:59Are you ready to work in a minority government?

14:01We're ready to work with the parliament that Tasmanian gives us.

14:08I'll respect the vote of the Tasmanian people.

14:10But I want to provide a firm Labor government that delivers on Labor policies,

14:15Labor values for Tasmanian regional communities,

14:18people all over the state that are relying on having a government

14:21that's giving them a fresh start.

14:23Are you confident?

14:24I'm really confident Tasmanians are looking for a fresh start and they're looking for change.

14:29It's been 11 years of the Liberals.

14:30They've driven us towards $13 billion worth of net debt.

14:33They've left our spirits of Tasmania on the wrong side of the world.

14:35And they even tried to sell our energy assets that we built together for 100 years.

14:39Would you accept confidence in supply from the Greens if nothing was asked in return?

14:44We don't do deals with the Greens and we've demonstrated that for years now.

14:48We could have done a deal with the Greens six weeks ago and we'd already be in government.

14:52We don't do deals with the Greens and any government that I lead will be a Labor government delivering a Labor agenda.

14:58You've focused on health the last two weeks. Is that the winner?

15:01Well I think Tassie Docks has been really warmly received.

15:04Sorry, I'll start it again.

15:06Tassie Dock has been warmly received across the state.

15:09Places like Burnie, Devonport, here in Ravenswood.

15:11Places like Kings Meadows, in New Norfolk.

15:14In Risdon Vale, in Huonville, in Glenorchy.

15:19I'll start it again.

15:21Look, Tassie Dock has been warmly received right across the state in the north, northwest and in the south.

15:26This is a reform that delivers healthcare to Tasmanians close to where they live, that's bulk-billed.

15:31It'll be powered by Medicare so that Tasmanians can get access to a free bulk-billed doctor close to where they live.

15:37If Labor doesn't improve its position, would you stay on as leader?

15:41We need to win for Tasmanians. They can't afford more Liberal debt.
